South Korean giant Samsung unveiled the next generation of its pioneering "phablet" and "smartwatch" gadgets at the IFA consumer electronics fair Wednesday in a bid to keep ahead of arch-rival Apple. The Galaxy Note 4 is "more enjoyable and more efficient" than its predecessors, said sales and marketing chief DJ Lee. The new phone has been given a new design with a metal casing, a more resistant screen with better resolution. Its built-in camera and microphone and its battery have also been optimised. The Galaxy Note 4 comes with an electronic pen with which the user can multi-task between different applications and move pictures and deposit them where they want on the screen.Samsung had triggered the phablet craze with the first Galaxy Note in 2011, since then smartphone screen sizes from most major makers have grown and the size that one appeared to be gigantic is now more-or-less a standard.
